Highlighted ingredients are regulated somewhere; red ones are restricted in at least one location we track. Dotted ones are listed below.

Fragrance allergens, essential oils and alcohol

None of the 80 fragrance allergens on the EU list appear on this label, and it lists no fragrance, essential oil or drying alcohol.

The EU requires these allergens to be named on cosmetic labels above 0.001% in leave-on products ([Regulation 1223/2009, Annex III](https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:02009R1223-20250501)). They can cause skin reactions in people who are sensitized; they don’t affect whether a sunscreen is legal anywhere we track.

Note: Brand site disclaims that the printed package label is authoritative over the web ingredient list. Water resistance taken from the Drug Facts reapply direction (after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating).

## Common questions about Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray

### Is Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray reef safe?

“Reef safe” isn’t a regulated label claim, so we answer by law instead. It is allowed under the sunscreen laws of Hawaii statewide, Maui County, Hawaiʻi County (Big Island), the U.S. Virgin Islands, Aruba, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands and Thailand's national parks, but not in Palau. Its only UV filters are minerals, which every law we track permits.

### Is Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray legal in Hawaii?

Under Hawaii’s statewide law (Act 104, which bans oxybenzone and octinoxate) it is allowed. In Maui County (Maui, Molokaʻi, Lānaʻi), which allows only mineral sunscreens, it is allowed. In Hawaiʻi County (the Big Island), which has a mineral-only rule for sales, it is allowed. Oʻahu and Kauaʻi have no county rule, so only the statewide law applies there.

### Where is Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray not allowed?

Palau: it contains phenoxyethanol, which is not allowed there.

### Does Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray contain oxybenzone?

No. It contains neither oxybenzone nor octinoxate, the two chemicals banned under Hawaii’s statewide law.

### Is Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray a mineral or chemical sunscreen?

Mineral. Its UV filter is zinc oxide 24%.

### Is the zinc oxide in Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray non-nano?

Its Drug Facts ingredient list doesn’t state particle size, and US labels aren’t required to. Many brands make non-nano claims elsewhere on the pack or website. No sunscreen law we track regulates nano particles.

### Is Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray water resistant?

Yes, for up to 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, according to its label. Reapply after 80 minutes in the water, immediately after towel drying, and at least every 2 hours.

### What is the NDC and UPC for Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray?

Blue Lizard Sport Mineral SPF 50 Spray is listed with the FDA under National Drug Code 0316-2080, and its UPC barcode is 303162080058. The NDC identifies this sunscreen on its FDA drug label (DailyMed); package sizes carry longer package NDCs.
